    If you had an "extra" 1K, what gun would you buy?

    My next 2 guns (and probably last ones) will be a Baretta 92 Elite LTT and a Sig 229 Legion, both in 9mm. I'd put the $1000 toward the Sig.

    Question about drying my brass

    If I really want to dry brass quickly I'll use a heat gun which only takes a few minutes to dry a few hundred pieces. Usually I'll just let it dry a day or two. I've got hundreds of clean brass ready to load.

    What Pistol do you carry.

    S&W M&P Shield in 9mm. I also have the Shield in .45 and like to carry that instead sometimes. Both have their own kydex holster, carried AIWB.

    Would you stay or move, if gun laws changed in your state?

    I live in New York state. It can't get much worse than here. I'll be retiring in a few months and will be looking to relocate to a southern state for several reasons; NYS taxes, politics, weather, as well as the states draconian gun laws. Upstate NY is a great place 3 seasons of the year to hunt...

    Attention Veterans - Cabela's Cuts Vets Discounts

    Funny, I went to a Cabellas for the first time last month. It was a 4 hour drive round trip but they had a Savage 12FV on sale AND a $100 rebate. I also got an unexpected 5% Veterans discount as a bonus. Semper Fi

    First Bolt Action Rifle

    I got the Ruger American in 7mm-08 and mounted a Vortex 3x9-40 and use it for deer hunting. I reload for it so it is economical. I recommend the Ruger and the caliber.

    Ruger American?

    I have the Ruger American in 7mm-08. Got it last summer to hunt deer but have only shot it at the range. Got a good deal on it, and a good deal on a Vortex Crossfire II scope that I mounted on it. I am currently reloading and trying to find the best load for it. It is very accurate and can be...

    cabelas gun guys! sheesh!

    I drove 2 hours to a Cabelas last night to pick up a rifle I was interested in. I called first to ensure that they had the gun in stock before I left home. When I got there, the "evening shift" was a little busy and couldn't find the gun. The guy seemed confused and it took a while, but it all...

    How I Became Interested in Firearms

    We never had guns in the house growing up. My father never was an outdoorsman. He was shot on Iwo Jima during WW II, maybe that had something to do with him not wanting anything more to do with guns. He eventually bought me a shotgun (Mossberg 500) when I was about 16 after my badgering him for...

    Kimber relocating

    Remington was founded here in Upstate NY in 1816 and has recently opened up a new manufacturing facility in Alabama and is continuing to lay off people at their Illion NY plant. It is not only a high tax (anti-business, no matter what their ad campaigns say) state, as well as an anti-gun state...

    Gun club background checks?

    I belong to a local pistol club because it is located down the road from me and has a nice indoor range as well as an outdoor range. Prospective members need only apply and attend a mandatory safety meeting (takes about 2 hours) which includes a test at the end, then a brief time at the range to...
